Blueridge, internet, should keep all of us in the co-op updated on status of correcting outages by the areas they are working on so we can have SOME IDEA of when we will get power back on!
Wish the power company would do something about the transformer near where I live. Every time there is a major storm or high winds the transformer sparks and causes an emergency cut off. This is the 8th time this year, 3 within the last 30 days, this has happened. I’ve called the power company about this after the previous times it has happened. I get the “we are currently taking care of these issues and will be getting to your area soon.” My question is when?
how long
